Some of this is interesting, such as the social media aspect, but I'd like to understand exactly what your motivation is and where your funding is from.

One of the things few people know about the new "porn addiction" websites, including NoFap and "Fight the New Drug" is that there are connections between these groups and the LDS (ie Mormon) church.

It's less about "addiction" than creating a stigma around pornography use by wrapping it in pseudo-science.

While pornography can be addictive, there are other models than absence and restriction that are shown to help all addiction (not just pornography), and I'm wondering if you'd looked into them, or (frankly) if this is just another LSD-funded scheme to turn people off of the idea of porn.
